an update from bloom and covid-19

bloom® was founded over 15 years ago, by four dads all entering the world of fatherhood for the first time. As new dads, we were looking to create safe and beautiful environments for our own kids. So safety is at the forefront of our designs. Today, we are now faced with new safety challenges as we address covid-19 and running a business....from our living rooms, with our kids at home :)

The health and safety of our employees and the communities we serve are our top priority. Following recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) all of our bloom retail stores and offices are CLOSED. All employees are working remotely.

We know you have questions, so we've put together a quick FAQ but if we don't address your issue, please reach out to us via live chat or on 1 800 399 9331.

We’ll get through this together by being kind, keeping healthy and staying connected virtually with friends and loved ones.

Q: Are bloom® packages safe?

A:We understand if you’re worried about receiving packages right now. But we can assure you that ordering from bloom® is still safe.

That’s partly due to the traits of the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19. The illness is mainly spread through respiratory droplets. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, “there is likely very low risk of spread from products or packaging that are shipped over a period of days or weeks at ambient temperatures.” As an extra precaution, you should always wash your hands immediately after handling packages.

We’ve taken actions on our end to ensure the safety of the bloom® community and employees. These include:

A travel ban in and out of high-risk countries and regions

Making sure employees who have traveled from high-risk countries self-isolate for 14 days and show no symptoms of illness before returning to work

Notify HR or their supervisor if they’ve been exposed to COVID-19, are diagnosed with the illness, or begin to show symptoms

Increasing the frequency of cleaning and disinfection of common areas and equipment

Providing free gloves to employees

Staggering shifts, limiting the amount of people in the break rooms and spacing associates where possible

Continuous corporate and local monitoring of CDC and WHO recommendations, risks and findings

Last, our carrying partners UPS and USPShave made changes to their services to safely deliver your orders to your door.

Nothing is more important than your health and that of your loved ones, and we take our responsibility to keep you safe seriously. We’ll continue to provide updates as the situation evolves. Take care of each other.
